Coordinates
The genomic coordinates of HG19 and Locus Reference Genomic (LRG) and the CDS coordinates of the Titin meta-transcript for exon 21 are displayed below.
| HG19 Genomic | HG38 Genomic | Locus Reference Genomic | Meta-Transcript | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Start | End | Start | End | Start | End | Start | End |
| 179,645,990 | 179,645,848 | 178,781,263 | 178,781,121 | 54,540 | 54,682 | 3,381 | 3,523 |
Transcripts
Exon 21 occurs in the following Titin transcripts (the number indicates the exon rank of exon 21 in each transcript).
| META | N2BA | N2B | N2A | NOVEX-1 | NOVEX-2 | NOVEX-3 |
| 21 | 21 | 20 | 21 | 20 | 20 | 21 |
Functional Data
Region: This exon occurs in the near Z-disk region of the titin protein.
Domains: This exon codes for the following domain(s) - Ig-like 4.
PSI: The "proportion spliced-in" (an estimate of the percentage of TTN transcripts that incorporate this exon based on RNAseq data) is 100% in DCM (LV tissue of 84 end-stage patients) and 100% in GTEx (LV tissue of 105 samples from Genotype-Tissue Expression project). (See Ref. 1 for details)
Symmetry: This exon is assymmetric, i.e. the length of the exon is not a multiple of three and therefore removal of it will alter the reading frame.
